Hey guys, Since I dont have a set of plans, can anybody tell me what wood I
would need to order to build a set of KR2S spars - The center ones, front
and rear. The only difference is that they will be 10 feet long - the
outboard spars will be standard length. I plan to build the 18% new airfoil
so
will be 8" tall I believe. I hope to order the wood for the center spars
within
the next month or two but need the info. I have a set of stock spars to get
some of the measurements as far as spacing from. Thanks.....Bill and 41768
- 330 hrs and counting...
Bill,
I believe the front inboards are total 2" tall by 2 5/32" wide then
your 10' times this by 2 for top cap and bottom. The inner pieces are 1/2" by 2
5/32 by 60". Your outboard front is 2" tall by 1'' wide by your 10' again
times that by 2 for top and bottom caps. The inner pieces are 1/2" by 2" by 72"
and 3/4" by 3/4" by 72". Center rear spar is
2 pcs 2" x 2 5/32" x 10' center forward spar
1 pcs 1/2" x 2 5/32 x 60" center forward spar vert pcs
2pcs 2" x 1'' x 78" outer front spars
1pcs 1/2" x 2" x 72" outer front spar vert pcs
1pcs 3/4" x 3/4" x 72" outer front spar vert pcs
2psc 2" x 1" x 10" rear center spars
1pcs 1/2" x 1/2" x 36" rear center vert pcs
1pcs 1/2" x 1" x 60" rear center vert pcs
4pcs 1" x 7/8" x 79" outer rear spars
1pcs 1/2" x 1" x 60" outer rear spar vert pcs
1pcs 1/2" x 1/2" x 60" outer rear spar vert pcs
The kr-2s printout from AS says 42" on the last two but I found out that I
needed more when i built mine so I added the extra that I needed to finish. I
am
actually building all my spars right now so I found out the hard way that I
needed more material to finish them:). If anyone finds a mistake in my little
list please correct it for Bill. I would hate for anyone else to go through
having to buy MORE wood cause you didnt get enough to begin with.
